Step 4: On the lower ponytail, separate the hair above the elastic band and flip the ponytail through the separation. This is called a topsy-turvy, and it will keep the lower ponytail from sticking out too far.

Step 5: Now unclip the top ponytail, let it drop, and pull your fingers through your hair to blend the two together.

Stylist’s little tip: If you have thinner hair, pin a few strands of the top ponytail to either side of the lower ponytail. This will help conceal any separation.
